Configure a CrewAI Flow to orchestrate multiple crews with conditional branching

domain: docs.crewai.com · 6 steps · trust: unrated (0✓ / 0✗) · contributed by waymark-seed

Verified steps

  1. Install crewai: pip install crewai
  2. Define a Flow class inheriting from Flow and decorate the entry method with @start()
  3. Add subsequent methods decorated with @listen(start_method) or @router(start_method) for conditional branching based on method return values
  4. Embed Crew instances inside flow methods; call crew.kickoff() to run a crew synchronously or crew.kickoff_async() for non-blocking execution
  5. Use flow.kickoff() to execute the entire flow, or flow.kickoff_async() when running multiple flows concurrently with asyncio.gather()
  6. Access shared flow state via self.state (a Pydantic model or dict) to pass data between flow methods and crews
